Everything that happened in '92 was more than I had dreamed of... winning the U.S. title for the first time and then doing so well at the Olympics... It seemed to wrap things up so perfectly. I couldn't help thinking, 'How could I top that?'

I'm kind of a homebody. My husband says I like to just stay home and do nothing, but that's just how I am.

Having achieved my own dreams, I want to give to kids who are less fortunate, who struggle with everyday obstacles. I want to give them something positive in their lives: support.

I never wanted to feel I hadn't worked hard enough.

Now, I am thrilled to be a wife and mother, and I hope to be as good of a mother as my own mother, Carole.

I burnt myself out of skating. I was ready to focus on being a mom.

As a professional, I think we're not being judged solely on technical ability anymore. People really want to be entertained and enjoy what they're watching.
